The room was abuzz with anticipation as everyone awaited the host's cue to begin the next round of the Death Battle. When the massive screen flickered to life, all eyes turned toward it, revealing Boomstick and Wiz standing side by side, their expressions poised for an announcement.

"Boomstick here, folks!" Boomstick declared with his signature enthusiasm, his voice booming through the speakers. "Got some news for y'all! Me and my buddy Wiz have decided to take a little vacation from hosting Death Battle."

Wiz nodded, his demeanor calm yet professional as always. "Now, don't panic. We've made arrangements to ensure the battles continue seamlessly in our absence."

Boomstick leaned forward, a mischievous grin spreading across his face. "Here's the kicker! The ones takin' over for us? They're not your average stand-ins. In fact, they're... kids!"

Gasps rippled through the audience like a wave, a mix of shock and disbelief. The idea of children stepping into the roles of such prominent hosts was as unexpected as it was intriguing.

Wiz raised a hand to address the unspoken questions lingering in the air. "I know what you're thinking. Why children? Allow me to—"

"Because they're no ordinary kids!" Boomstick interjected, cutting him off mid-sentence. "These little whippersnappers might look like your everyday rascals, but don't let that fool ya! They're the official assistants to the multiversal observers. When an observer steps away, it's these kids who temporarily take over their duties—watching over universes and helping out wherever they're needed."

Wiz shot Boomstick a sidelong glance, his lips twitching in faint annoyance. "Yes, exactly what I was about to say, Boomstick," he muttered, his tone exasperated but resigned.

The room fell silent as the revelation sank in. The crowd exchanged uneasy glances, their initial surprise giving way to contemplation. It was one thing to imagine children wielding such responsibility, but it was another to consider the multiversal observers themselves—entities whose existence seemed almost intrusive. The very thought of being watched by unseen eyes across dimensions sent a collective shiver down their spines. Still, there was an air of reluctant acceptance. If these children truly came from realms inhabited by gods, perhaps they were more capable than their appearance suggested.

Wiz cleared his throat, pulling their attention back to the screen. "With that said, we'll be heading out now."

Boomstick threw a mock salute, his grin widening. "Catch ya later, folks! Don't miss us too much—we'll see ya for the next big match!"

The screen flickered off, leaving a brief moment of stillness before it blinked back to life. This time, the scene had changed. Instead of Boomstick and Wiz, a new setting came into focus, showcasing the promised replacements—children who carried an air of authority that belied their youthful appearances. They stood poised, ready to take on their unexpected roles as the multiverse's newest hosts.

Jack: Ah, Christmas tim-

Suddenly, the door slammed open, and a boy with cat ears and yellow cat eyes, wearing white fashionable magician outfit, carrying a cane, and wearing a top hat, entered the room. This was Kaelaz.

Kaelaz: Hey there! Since I did the research for this fight, can I help explain the backstories and stuff?

Jack: Of course, you can. Anyway, back to the introduction. Christmas time—a time to spend with family.

Darfston: But not when a monster is trying to slaughter you and your loved ones!

Kaelaz: Krampus, pretty much the reverse of Santa.

Vaerden: And SCP-4666, The Yule Man.

Darfston: Will Krampus do more than just leave a cramp in The Yule Man, or will SCP-4666 secure, contain, but not protect those children in Krampus' sack?

Darfston: I'm Darfston, that's Jack and Kaelaz, and over here are Yorina and Amarton, and finally, Vaerden. We are all here to find out who would win a Death Battle!

...

[Out of the screen]

Across countless Earths and realms, the inhabitants had long known about the joyous event of Christmas Day. However, for fantasy worlds and alternative dimensions unfamiliar with the celebration, small ethereal screens materialized, offering explanations of the holiday's significance. The newfound knowledge sparked curiosity and inspiration. Intrigued by the idea, many suggested creating their own version of Christmas to share in the joy of gift-giving, familial bonding, and festive cheer.

Yet, when the images of Krampus and SCP-4666 were revealed as the next contenders in the Death Battle, the atmosphere shifted. A chilling silence enveloped the multiverse, and an uneasy dread gripped the hearts of those watching. Parents instinctively shielded their children's eyes, desperate to protect their innocence from the sight of such malevolent creatures.

Heroes and protagonists across the multiverse donned grim expressions, silently vowing to vanquish these monstrous beings should they ever cross paths. Even villains, whose hearts were steeped in malice, felt compelled to eliminate such abominations if given the chance.

As the new hosts formally introduced Krampus and SCP-4666, the recognition rippled through the viewers. Krampus, the dark counterpart to Saint Nicholas, was a name steeped in myth and fear—a being who punished those who lost their Christmas spirit. Meanwhile, the SCP universe reeled in disbelief, for SCP-4666 was no stranger to them. The O5 Council, researchers, and even the Mobile Task Forces scrambled to address the creature's involvement in the Death Battle. Their efforts to study and contain it in their own universe had always ended in failure. This simulated clash, however, provided a unique opportunity for observation, though it did little to quell their apprehension.

For many, the idea of monsters rooted in Christmas lore was a jarring contradiction. Christmas was meant to be a time of joy and togetherness, yet these beings were a stark reminder of the darker tales intertwined with the holiday spirit.

Spy x Family Universe

In a quiet living room, the Forger family sat before the screen, watching the events unfold. Each member processed the revelations in their own way.

Loid adjusted his posture, his tone calm but laced with curiosity. "Krampus... I remember reading myths about him as a child. He's said to be a demonic counterpart to Saint Nicholas, punishing those who lose their Christmas spirit. It's surprising to see these myths hold true in other realities."

Anya clung to Yor's arm, her eyes wide with fright. "Those monsters are scary," she whispered, her small voice trembling.

Yor, ever the protective mother, gently stroked her daughter's hair. "Don't worry, Anya. We won't let anything harm you," she assured her with a warm smile.

Anya peeked into Yor's thoughts, finding an iron resolve. "I'll make sure neither of them touches my sweet girl," Yor thought, her mind fierce with determination. Anya's lips curled into a soft smile, comforted by the unspoken promise.

"Um... what if I'm really naughty?" Anya asked hesitantly, her eyes darting between her parents. "Will Krampus come and punish me?"

Loid chuckled softly, shaking his head. "Of course not. You've done nothing wrong. Besides, it's not even Christmas yet."

"You're a good girl," Yor added, placing a reassuring hand on Anya's shoulder. "I know you're on the nice list."

Anya beamed. "Thank you, Mom and Dad!"

Men-In-Black (Old Movie) universe

In the sleek halls of MIB headquarters, the agents gathered to analyze the broadcast. The images of Krampus and SCP-4666 loomed on the screen, sparking a wave of grim determination.

Agent J leaned back in his chair, his usual humor tempered by the gravity of the situation. "Man, I've seen a lot of weird stuff, but scary Christmas monsters? That's a new one."

Agent K adjusted his tie, his expression unreadable. "I've heard of Krampus before, but this SCP thing? That's new territory."

"Yeah, that creepy smile guy?" J grimaced. "Who even names these things?"

"An organization similar to us, probably," K replied. "But no matter the name, they're dangerous. If Krampus is real in another universe, we'd better be ready in case he shows up here."

J's lips curled into a cocky grin. "If he's real, I say we go Krampus hunting."

K shot him a sidelong glance. "Containment first. Destruction if necessary."

J nodded. "Fair enough. But if it's up to me? We're taking that sucker down."

MCU universe (Before Captain America: Civil War)

In Avengers Tower, the team watched the broadcast in a rare moment of unity. The images on the screen sparked a variety of reactions.

Vision tilted his head, his synthesized voice calm. "Fascinating. Two monstrous figures tied to Christmas. Do you think this might instill fear in people when the holiday arrives?"

Tony leaned back, smirking. "Well, if a demon Santa's out to punish naughty kids, I'd bet parents everywhere would double down on holiday cheer."

Steve frowned, his jaw tight. "Even so, no child deserves punishment like that. It's cruel, regardless of their behavior."

Rhodey shrugged. "Hey, it's his job, right? Not saying I agree, but that's the myth."

Sam crossed his arms, his brow furrowed in thought. "Maybe this'll convince people to keep their Christmas spirit alive—if only out of fear."

Wanda's voice was soft but tinged with worry. "If Krampus is real in another universe... does that mean he could exist here too?"

Tony turned to Thor. "What about it, Point Break? You're a god. Got any intel on this horned guy?"

Thor's expression darkened. "I know of no such creature in Asgard's archives. If he exists in Midgard, then he is a mystery even to us."

The room fell into a contemplative silence as the broadcast continued.

Krampus

Kaelaz: Don't let your Christmas spirit die, and don't be naughty. If you do, you're likely about to become one of Krampus' victims.

Darfston: Krampus doesn't have much of a backstory, so... moving on!

Amarton: Ahem! Technically someone who never studies Krampus story.

He said, pulling out a tablet as he read the folklore story of Krampus.

Amarton: Ah here! Now then, it says here that Krampus is a creature with elf ears, and big horns, typical of the folklore of alpine countries such as Austria, Germany, France, Italy, Liechtenstein, Monaco, Slovenia, and Switzerland.

Darfston: Even Switzerland? The most neutral country that tries to avoid being involved in war?

Amarton: Yes, now quiet please!

He said to Darfston, not liking to interrupt the story.

Amarton: Anyway, according to legend, this demonic being appears on the night of December 5-6, looking for children who have misbehaved or lost their Christmas Spirit. Krampus takes children in their sack to the underworld, or better known as hell, where they will be punished forever in the fiery flame.

These words left everyone in different universes silent.

Yorina: Wow. Something murky for such a joyous time. But what can be done?

She said, Everyone agreed to her words, but they continued the show.

...

[Out of the screen]

In every universe, the revelation of these sinister Christmas creatures left people in utter shock. Children fainted from sheer terror, while adults, though equally frightened, were burdened with a grave sense of responsibility. Many took it upon themselves to ensure their families preserved the Christmas spirit at all costs. Yet, a chilling realization loomed—those who faltered might fall prey to these demonic manifestations of the holiday season.

...

The Nightmare Before Christmas universe

Jack Skellington gazed at the screen, his skeletal fingers tapping his chin in fascination.
"Did you see that, Sally? Dr. Finkelstein? A creature born of Christmas lore... but with a spine-chilling twist! Krampus feels a bit like Oogie Boogie—filled with mischief, yet harboring an even darker menace."

His eye sockets gleamed with curiosity as he turned to his companions.

Sally, her hands nervously threading through her stitched fingers, shivered at the thought.
"Yes, Jack... He seems like a being conjured from one of our most dreadful Halloween nightmares. The chains, the hooves, those piercing eyes... It's hard to imagine anyone standing against him without trembling in fear."

Dr. Finkelstein adjusted his head with a mechanical click, his voice tinged with morbid intrigue.
"Quite fascinating, really. A creature capable of such psychological warfare—terrorizing children into obedience by extinguishing their holiday joy. It's... ingenious, in a grotesque way."

Jack's grin widened with newfound excitement.
"I've never crossed paths with this Krampus fellow, though I've known Santa well. Speaking of which, Santa never mentioned him. Perhaps it's time for another visit to the North Pole... I must uncover this frightful enigma."

...

Ultimate Super Smash Bros. universe

Sora rested his Keyblade against his shoulder, his brow furrowed as he studied the screen.
"Krampus... Santa never mentioned anything about him."

Wii Fit Trainer tilted her head, arms crossed in curiosity.
"You've met Santa, Sora? That's quite the claim. How did that happen?"

Sora chuckled, scratching the back of his head.
"Let's just say it involved protecting a world's hearts from darkness. It's a long story, but Santa's pretty great."

Pit's wings fluttered nervously as he turned to Palutena.
"Lady Palutena... that Krampus guy is terrifying. I mean, who even comes up with a legend like that?"

Palutena's gaze remained steady, her voice calm yet firm.
"As the myth goes, Krampus punishes children who lose their Christmas spirit. While the intent may be to restore order, his methods are far too extreme—dragging them to the gates of hell is... excessive, to say the least."

Bayonetta smirked, her guns spinning idly in her hands.
"Well, that other creature up against the folklore demon doesn't look much better. Honestly, I'd love to put a bullet between his eyes. Let's see how smug that grin is after that."

Cloud gave a brief nod, his voice low and grim.
"You're not alone in that."

The younger fighters in the Smash arena exchanged uneasy glances, their fear replaced by a determined resolve. They might be children by appearance, but they were warriors—ready to defend themselves if these monsters ever dared cross into their world. For others, though, the helpless and the unarmed, survival against such foes seemed a bleak prospect.

MHA Universe

UA High School, Conference Room

All Might stood with his arms crossed, his gaze thoughtful. "So, Krampus is supposed to be some kind of Christmas enforcer, scaring children into behaving. Sounds a bit dark, don't you think? It's strange to think of using fear in such a way."

Gran Torino squinted at the screen, a small smirk playing on his lips. "Not so strange if you look at history, All Might. Superstitions like Krampus were used to keep people in line. If you've got kids scared of a horned creature carrying a sack full of terror, it gets the job done!"

Recovery Girl frowned slightly, her voice laced with concern. "Using fear to control children's behavior, though... it feels a bit cruel, doesn't it? But folklore often teaches lessons that way. Still, I wouldn't let Krampus near my students!"

Midnight grinned slyly, her tone teasing. "This Krampus certainly brings a bit of Halloween to Christmas, doesn't he? Terrifying one moment, then acting as if he's doing everyone a favor. I can appreciate the drama, but I'd hate to clean up the mess he'd leave behind!"

Eraserhead's expression was unreadable as he spoke. "This isn't just theatrics. If someone like Krampus showed up here, it would be a nightmare for the kids. They've already dealt with enough... the thought of being thrown into a sack and dragged to the underworld? Not under my watch."

Present Mic, both horrified and fascinated, couldn't help but comment. "Yo, can you imagine the sound he'd make? Chains, horns, hooves—he'd make one hell of a noise in a dark alley! It's wild to think that places like Switzerland have such a terrifying figure for their kids. They're hardcore!"

Endeavor crossed his arms, his face serious. "If Krampus tried showing up in Japan, he wouldn't last long. But I get it—the idea of a 'consequence' that feels real might appeal to kids. For us, though, he'd just be another villain."

Power Loader adjusted his gear, nodding. "If Krampus is really out there capturing kids, he's our enemy. There's nothing heroic about using fear to trap the weak. But there's something fascinating about the legend itself. It's been around for centuries. Pretty wild folklore from a technical standpoint."

The room fell silent as everyone processed the discussion, their expressions serious. All Might broke the quiet with a steadying reminder.

"Well," he said, his tone resolute, "I think we should take Kaelaz's warning to heart. Let's keep our holiday spirit alive and stay on the nice list! If any of our students get spooked by a Krampus story, I'd rather remind them of what true heroes stand for."

Gran Torino chuckled. "Heh, I couldn't agree more."

Midnight raised an eyebrow. "But... it's not Christmas Day this month."

All Might smiled knowingly. "Then let's make sure we all carry the Christmas spirit as we should. We'll celebrate when December comes."

Recovery Girl sighed, facepalming. "Oh, Toshinori..."

[Class-1A Heights Alliance]

Midoriya Izuku flipped through his notebook, his eyes wide with disbelief. "Krampus... So he's a holiday creature, but instead of spreading joy, he punishes? That's intense. He's got horns and hooves—like a Christmas villain. But instead of fighting bad guys, he targets naughty children. I never thought Christmas had something like this!"

Ochaco Uraraka hugged herself, clearly uneasy. "Izuku, this is way scarier than any villain we've faced. I mean, kids getting taken in a sack and dragged to... the underworld? I don't want to be anywhere near that!"

Katsuki Bakugo rolled his eyes, arms crossed. "Tch. Are you guys seriously freaked out by some dumb story about a holiday demon? Krampus is supposed to scare kids into behaving, but I could handle him with one explosion. Bet he wouldn't dare come near me with those chains."

Shoto Todoroki, calm as ever but intrigued, nodded. "So Krampus punishes kids to make them fear misbehaving. It's different from how we view Christmas, but considering his origins, maybe he's seen as a necessary balance—like a yin to Santa's yang."

Tsuyu Asui tilted her head thoughtfully. "Ribbit. It's strange to have such a creature around a joyful holiday. But I wonder if Krampus is really that bad, or if he's just misunderstood. If he's scaring kids to make them behave, maybe he just has a tough job no one else wants to do?"

Mina Ashido shivered, her eyes wide. "Whoa! Can you imagine Krampus just showing up here? He'd probably stomp around, yelling in all sorts of languages, dragging kids into sacks. That's wild. But hey, maybe he'd like my acid powers?"

Kirishima Eijiro grinned. "This Krampus guy sounds... kinda manly? He's got horns, chains, and he's straight-up challenging naughty kids. Not how I'd do it, but hey, that's his style!"

Tenya Iida raised his voice sternly. "Folklore often serves a purpose, everyone. Krampus is meant to instill discipline. I can't condone scaring kids like this, but it might be a cultural method for encouraging good behavior. We can learn from it... and make sure we stay on the nice list."

Hanta Sero attempted to lighten the mood. "Yeah, but imagine Krampus showing up here! He'd try to grab someone with his sack, and we'd just web him down before he could take a step! He'd never see that coming!"

Minoru Mineta, shaking, tried to hide his fear. "No way! If Krampus really came here, I'm out. I'd rather stay on the nice list. Getting dragged to the underworld? No thanks!"

He said, trembling at the thought of Krampus coming to take him for his naughty ways, mostly because of his perverted intentions.

Rikido Sato laughed. "Heh, I'd just bake him a big plate of Christmas cookies and hope that's enough to keep him away. Can't hurt to try the sweet approach, right?"

Koji Koda, with a shy smile, spoke softly. "Maybe Krampus wouldn't bother us if we helped animals. Animals don't end up on the naughty list, right?"

Toru Hagakure giggled, trying to lighten the mood. "Hey, I bet Krampus wouldn't even know where I am—I'd be totally invisible!"

Mashirao Ojiro nodded, agreeing. "That's true, Toru. But seriously, Krampus is like a guardian keeping behavior in check, just like a hero. He's not my style, but if he helps keep people from causing trouble..."

Fumikage Tokoyami's voice was low and thoughtful. "A dark spirit wandering the winter nights... It feels like a gothic tale. I think I could learn from such an intense figure."

Dark Shadow, whispering, added nervously. "He gives me the creeps... Don't let him near me!"

Mezo Shoji spoke up, his voice calm. "Krampus doesn't feel like a hero or a villain to me—just a force. If he showed up here, we'd have to figure out how to reason with him. Strength isn't always the answer."

Bakugo, determined, shouted loudly. "No! Strength is always the answer!"

He clenched his fists, eager to fight if Krampus dared show up.

Yuga Aoyama struck a dramatic pose. "He may have chains and terror, but my sparkle would be too bright for him to handle! A creature of shadow cannot thrive in light!"

Denki Kaminari, trying to joke but still a little scared, chuckled. "Heh, but what if he's got some kind of lightning resistance? I'd be toast if he had the same moves as me!"

Kyoka Jiro rolled her eyes, but a small smile tugged at the corner of her lips. "Relax, Denki. He's just some Alpine story. It's not like he's dropping in from the mountains anytime soon. Besides, we could always blast him with loud music."

Momo Yaoyorozu nodded thoughtfully. "Folklore reveals so much about people and culture. But if Krampus ever showed up, we'd make sure to have plenty of Christmas decorations ready. Maybe we could even win him over with a bit of holiday cheer?"

Deku nodded slowly, his concern for Eri and Kota clear. "I just can't imagine what would happen to them if Krampus came for them."

Ochaco Uraraka looked at him, worried. "Izuku..."

Mina quickly reassured him. "Hey, hey, don't worry. Those two are nice, so they're safe from Krampus. They're definitely not on the naughty list."

Deku smiled faintly. "Yeah, you're right. Thanks, Mina."

Mina grinned, giving Izuku a thumbs-up. "Hehehe, no problem!"

[Back to Screen]

...

Jack: Krampus' strength is no joke. He can break through the ceiling of a mall and even dent chimneys—sometimes just by going down them!

Vaerden: He easily destroyed a truck that made entire houses shake just by driving past. Imagine the impact when Krampus lands on a house!

Amarton: Krampus also managed to pull a child away on a chain, even when the entire family was tugging against him! He can jump between houses in a single bound too!

Yorina: If that's not fast enough for you, he can disappear from a child's sight in seconds. And the only weapons he uses are his chains.

Amarton: We won't go over his long list of strength feats, but these are the most notable ones. So, let's talk about his special abilities now.

...

[Out of the screen]

Many worlds had been struck with a mixture of awe and fear by the mere mention of Krampus' formidable power. It was clear that engaging him in hand-to-hand combat would be nothing short of suicide. To those who possessed superhuman abilities, a direct confrontation might seem possible, but even they knew to approach with extreme caution, for his abilities were not to be underestimated.

MHA Universe

LOV, New Headquarter

Tomura Shigaraki lounged back in his chair, a smirk playing at the corners of his lips as he spoke. "So, this Krampus guy just snatches up naughty kids, huh? Sounds like a real menace. I could almost respect that chaotic spirit... if it wasn't so utterly ridiculous."

Dabi, arms crossed and eyes narrowed, gave a dismissive grunt. "Yeah, but can he really hold a candle to us? Chains and a sack? That's more like something you'd see in a bad Halloween costume than a legitimate threat. To me, he sounds like nothing more than a glorified babysitter."

Twice, ever the optimist, grinned as he leaned forward. "But think about it! He pulls kids away with chains while their entire families hold on for dear life. That's some serious strength! We're strong, sure, but this guy's got style! He could put on a real show!"

Toga clapped her hands in delight, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "I think he sounds amazing! Chains, spooky eyes... I love it! If I met him, I'd totally want to be friends! We could make such chaos together, so much fun!"

Spinner tilted his head, his curiosity piqued. "Isn't it kind of messed up, though? I mean, he drags kids away because they're naughty. That's a bit much, don't you think? But... maybe there's something we can learn from him? He definitely knows how to keep them in line."

Shigaraki snapped his fingers, a gleam of amusement in his eyes. "You think we could use his tactics? Fear mixed with discipline could be... effective. But the chains? That's messy. What do we need chains for? We've got quirks of our own."

Dabi raised an eyebrow, a sarcastic smile tugging at his lips. "What's next? You want to recruit him? I can already picture it: 'Krampus and the League of Villains: A Christmas Special.' Sounds like a disaster waiting to happen."

Twice burst into laughter, clearly entertained by the thought. "We'd totally steal the show! Imagine it—us taking down heroes while Krampus distracts them with all that chain action! What's he going to do, drag them into the underworld?"

Toga twirled around, giddy with excitement. "I want to see him in action! He'd be so much fun to fight! We could even dress up like him! Chains and all! Maybe he'll like us!"

Spinner struggled to maintain a straight face, his expression conflicted. "Yeah, I don't know about dressing up like a chain-wielding demon. Seems a little much, even for us. We might end up scaring more kids than we mean to."

Dabi snickered, his amusement obvious. "Wouldn't that be the point? Picture it: 'The League of Villains and Krampus: Scaring children and causing chaos this holiday season!'"

Shigaraki smirked, eyes glinting with dark amusement. "Not a bad idea, but let's focus on what matters: getting rid of those damn heroes. We don't need some creepy creature to do it. Besides, I prefer my chaos without the chains."

Twice pouted in mock disappointment. "Fine, but it would've been a cool collaboration! Just think of the merchandise! 'Krampus and Friends'—I can see the plushies now!"

Toga giggled, her mind already racing. "I'd totally buy that! But we need to make sure it's bloody! Otherwise, what's the point?"

Spinner sighed, a half-smile tugging at his lips. "You all are hopeless. Let's just stick to our own plan. Krampus can keep his chains. We've got our quirks."

The conversation shifted back to their schemes against the heroes, but the fleeting amusement of the dark idea of Krampus hung in the air for just a moment longer. While they acknowledged the stark contrast between him and their own villainous goals, the festive topic had lightened the mood, if only for a brief, chaotic moment. They continued watching the screen, their thoughts already turning back to darker matters.

[Back to screen]

...

Darfston: Krampus has some form of clairvoyance. He knows the exact moment a child loses their Christmas spirit and will track them down.

Kaelaz: And when Krampus finds them, a huge blizzard manifests out of nowhere, plunging everything into a blackout.

Jack: That blizzard can cause frostbite within minutes. Krampus even caused someone to freeze to death shortly after the storm began.

Amarton: His presence alone makes electronics flicker, and when he steps on glass, it frosts up in seconds. How does that even work?

Jack: Magic. Dark Christmas magic.

He commented with a little mockery, but it could also be the only explanation.

[Out of the screen]

Across the universe, word of Krampus's powers spread like wildfire, sparking a mix of awe and terror in all who heard it. His name alone sent chills down spines, and his very existence was enough to make anyone question their own actions.

Kid vs Kat universe

Dennis House, Dennis' Bedroom

Coop scratched his head, his expression skeptical. "So, let me get this straight. This Krampus guy is some sort of Christmas monster who can sense when kids lose their holiday spirit? Sounds like a total myth to me."

Dennis grinned, eyes wide with excitement. "I don't know, Coop! It sounds kinda cool! I mean, imagine if we could get him to come after Kat! He'd be the perfect distraction!"

Fiona rolled her eyes, a sarcastic smile curling on her lips. "Right, because what we really need is a supernatural creature dragging kids to the underworld. That sounds like a fantastic idea, Dennis." She clapped her hands mockingly.

Coop smirked, raising an eyebrow. "Yeah, I don't think bringing in a monster is the answer to our problems. We've got enough chaos with Kat without adding Krampus into the mix."

Dennis leaned forward eagerly, his grin widening. "But think about it! He can create blizzards and track people down! If he's as powerful as they say, he could help us take down that alien cat! Just imagine the looks on Kat's face!"

Fiona crossed her arms, unimpressed. "So, you want to team up with a creature that causes frostbite and brings darkness wherever he goes? Doesn't sound like a plan to me, Dennis."

Coop nodded in agreement. "Exactly! Plus, if he shows up, we'd have to deal with blizzards and frozen electronics. I can barely keep my gadgets working as it is!"

Dennis grinned wider, clearly amused. "That just adds to the fun! We could set a trap for Kat using Krampus! 'Krampus vs. Kat'—that'd be a show I'd pay to see!"

Fiona sighed, but couldn't suppress a slight smile. "I can already see the headlines: 'Local Kid and Friends Unleash Holiday Horror!' I just hope he doesn't decide to stick around after dealing with Kat."

Coop shrugged, his face serious. "I'm more worried about what happens if Krampus thinks we've been naughty. Who's to say he wouldn't come after us too?"

Dennis giggled. "Yeah, I can just picture it: Krampus knocking on our door asking for naughty kids! You'd better watch your back, Coop!" He joked, nudging his best friend.

Fiona laughed, shaking her head. "And I can imagine Kat laughing from a safe distance, enjoying the chaos. What if Krampus just drags you two off while I get to stay cozy inside?"

Coop grinned, pretending to be scared. "No way! If Krampus is coming, we need to stick together! Right, guys?"

Dennis snickered. "Right! If we can survive Kat, we can survive anything! Even a demon from Christmas folklore!"

Fiona raised an eyebrow. "I hope so. Because if not, well, good luck trying to crawl out of the underworld once Krampus drags you in."

...

[Burtonburger's House]

Burt shook his head, chuckling nervously. "Well, that's just great. A Christmas monster that can track kids down? Sounds like something straight out of a horror movie."

Millie's eyes were wide with fascination. "But, Dad, it's so interesting! Did you hear how he knows when kids lose their Christmas spirit? It's like he's watching us!"

Burt rolled his eyes, clearly unimpressed. "Yeah, well, I don't need some creepy monster showing up to ruin our holidays. I can just imagine Krampus busting through the door and dragging you off to his lair!"

Millie giggled, unfazed. "I'd be way too nice for him to take me! Plus, he doesn't stand a chance against my ninja moves!" She struck an exaggerated karate pose in front of her dad.

Burt smirked, clearly skeptical. "Right, because a creature that causes blizzards and makes electronics go haywire is totally going to back down from a little karate. Are you sure you're not mixing him up with Kat?"

Millie laughed. "No way! Kat is just a cute, innocent cat. Krampus sounds way cooler—like a supervillain from a comic book!"

Burt sighed, shaking his head. "You think it's cool that he can freeze people? That blizzard can cause frostbite! What kind of holiday spirit is that?"

Millie pouted slightly. "But it's a story! It makes Christmas exciting! Imagine if we met him and we had to show him how to enjoy the holidays! He might even change his mind!"

Burt raised an eyebrow, unimpressed. "And what do you plan to do? Bake him cookies and sing carols?"

Millie's face lit up. "Exactly! Maybe if we give him enough holiday cheer, he'll leave us alone. It's worth a shot, right?"

Burt sighed again, shaking his head. "You're more optimistic than I am. I'd rather stick with the traditional celebrations—no Krampus, no blizzards, and definitely no scary stories!"

Meanwhile, the so-called "cute, innocent cat," Kat, an alien feline from his homeworld, sat back and watched the conversation unfold. As he analyzed the idea of Krampus's arrival, he couldn't help but wonder whether the demon was real. Still, he wasn't one to drop his guard easily. With his brilliant mind and his trusty inventions, he was certain he could take on Krampus—and Coop—simultaneously. After all, killing two birds with one stone was always his preferred strategy.

Halo Universe

UNSC Base

Fernando blinked in disbelief, eyes wide with shock. "Ok, that is crazy."

A pilot, shaking his head in stunned amazement, observed the frozen body of a person, clearly struck down by Krampus' curse, his form rigid and lifeless from the blizzard's chilling grip.

The Weapon/Cortana 2.0, her voice tinged with analytical precision, responded, "To make a person freeze to death in a matter of minutes, the temperature would have to be dangerously low."

Master Chief stood silent for a moment, his mind processing the implications. "It would mean the death of many marines... as well as our enemies."

The Weapon/Cortana 2.0 tilted her head, almost casually. "Well, I suppose the Brutes might survive, seeing as they have fur."

Master Chief's lips tightened. "True. But that wasn't the case."

Her brow furrowed, a slight hint of curiosity entering her tone. "How so?"

"Brutes may have fur," he said, his voice steady, "but it wouldn't protect them if they were trapped in the blizzard. They would freeze to death without a way out. It would be a death sentence."

Fernando let out a relieved sigh, "Good thing nothing happened to us. I'm just glad this ring won't activate a blizzard everywhere. We wouldn't survive for a minute."

The Weapon/Cortana 2.0 giggled softly, the sound almost mechanical. "Well, it comes from a Forerunner weather mechanism, not Christmas demon magic."

Frisk House

Mettaton had to depart for his work, leaving the room to tend to his career. Once he was gone, Frisk and the others turned their attention back to the screen, continuing to learn about Krampus.

Frisk furrowed their brow, clearly worried. "So, Krampus can track kids who lose their Christmas spirit? That sounds... really scary. What if he tries to find someone here? Or worse—what if he comes after me?"

Toriel wrapped her arms around Frisk, offering comfort. "Do not fear, my child. We will not allow anything to harm our family. But we must be cautious. A creature capable of summoning blizzards is not something we should take lightly."

Sans, lounging with a casual grin, leaned back in his chair. "Heh, sounds like a real chill guy. But seriously, tracking down kids? That's pretty unsettling. Makes you wonder how he even does that."

Papyrus, ever the optimist, clenched his fists, his voice filled with determination. "WELL, BROTHER! PERHAPS WE CAN DISCOVER HIS WEAKNESS! IF HE CAN SUMMON BLIZZARDS, WE CAN OUTSMART HIM WITH OUR OWN STRATEGIES!"

Undyne crossed her arms, her expression fierce with resolve. "If he's targeting kids, we fight back. We won't let him take anyone, no matter how scary he is. We're stronger together!"

Alphys, adjusting her glasses nervously, spoke up. "Um, guys, but what about the blizzard? If it can freeze someone to death, we might need to come up with a plan before rushing in. Krampus sounds pretty powerful, especially if he can cause blackouts."

Asgore, ever the caring figure, nodded gravely. "We must prepare for the worst. If Krampus can cause frostbite within minutes, we should gather supplies—warm clothing, maybe some hot cocoa, just in case anyone feels his effects. I won't let anyone suffer while I'm powerless to stop it."

Frisk, smiling at Asgore's fatherly concern, agreed warmly. "That's a good idea! We'll make sure everyone stays safe and warm. And maybe we can spread some holiday cheer to lift our spirits!"

Sans raised an eyebrow, his voice tinged with humor. "Heh, but what if he shows up while we're drinking hot cocoa? That'd really put a damper on the holidays."

Papyrus, unphased by the idea, beamed with excitement. "THEN WE SHALL INVITE HIM TO JOIN US! WE CAN SHOW HIM THE TRUE MEANING OF THE HOLIDAY! IF HE'S LOOKING FOR KIDS ON THE NAUGHTY LIST, HE SHOULD KNOW THE POWER OF FRIENDSHIP!"

Undyne facepalmed, clearly exasperated. "Papyrus, I don't think that's how it works. He's not just gonna sit down for cookies and milk, you know!"

Toriel chuckled softly, shaking her head in amusement. "It's sweet of you to think that, Papyrus. However, perhaps we should focus on preparing our defenses first, before we attempt to change Krampus' mind. His powers seem formidable, and we mustn't underestimate him."

Alphys, tapping her fingers nervously, offered an idea. "What if we set up some traps? Like snow barriers or hot water to keep him at bay if he comes? I can build something with my tech to monitor for blizzards or flickering lights!"

Frisk's face lit up with enthusiasm. "That sounds perfect, Alphys! We'll work together to protect everyone and keep the holiday spirit alive!"

Sans smirked, a playful glint in his eye. "And if all else fails, we can always freeze him right back. Just gotta hope he doesn't have a bone to pick with us."

Vaerden: Now, let's get to his coolest ability—throwing people into the Underworld!

Yorina: Krampus can make the ground crack open, revealing a portal to the fiery pits of hell. He'll throw his victims into the portal, but what happens next is a mystery, since the only person he did that to was given a second chance before they hit the ground.

Jack: Finally, Krampus has a snow globe that he uses to keep an eye on anyone he believes deserves a second chance, along with a weird vat of liquid that can make someone relive their past—a bit like A Christmas Carol.

The screen shows how Krampus sends people to hell and how he had a snow globe to watch over people who gave them a second chance of never losing Christmas spirit.

Everyone is completely shocked and silent by Krampus' special ability of Krampus... Sending them straight to hell.

Genshin Impact

[Grandmaster Office Room]

In the Grandmaster's office, Klee trembled with fear at the thought of Krampus. The folklore of the beast, said to punish children who had lost their Christmas spirit, haunted her thoughts. Her small body quivered as tears welled in her eyes, and she muttered repeatedly, her voice thick with anxiety.

"I'll be a good girl, I'll be a good girl, I'll be a good girl, please... I don't want to go to that awful place." She sniffed, desperate.

Jean, sitting beside Klee and gently holding her, tenderly patted her hair to calm her. "Don't worry, Klee," she said softly. "That monster isn't from our world. He belongs to a place far different from here."

Lisa, observing the scene, offered an alternative thought. "Perhaps we could use this Christmas Eve to bring joy to the people of Mondstadt. It might help lift their spirits, Grandmaster."

Jean considered this. "It's a good idea. A time for people to come together, relax, and forget their worries for a while."

Noelle, with a frown, spoke up. "As long as monsters like Krampus don't exist in our world. His methods may seem justified to him, but they're far too cruel. Dragging children to the underworld is unforgivable."

Lisa nodded. "True, Noelle. But what happens when they're given a second chance? Will they learn, or will they repeat their mistakes and face the consequences again?"

The room fell into a heavy silence, no one daring to answer.

Sonic the Hedgehog (IDW) comic universe

Sonic scratched the back of his head, attempting to lighten the atmosphere. "Man, that's some serious stuff! Sending people to hell? That's not something any good guy would do!"

Amy, wide-eyed and clasping her hands together, spoke with a tremor in her voice. "What kind of monster does that? Krampus sounds terrifying!"

Tails, ever the analyst, adjusted his goggles, trying to make sense of the information. "The power to crack open the ground and open a portal like that... We need to figure out how he does it. It's insane!"

Cream clung to her mother, tears streaming down her face. "Mom, what if Krampus comes for me? I've been good my whole life! I don't want to go to that awful place!"

Vanilla knelt beside Cream, wrapping her arms protectively around her. "Shh, sweetheart, you don't have to worry. You're not on any naughty list. You've always been a good girl, and we'll make sure you're safe. I promise, Krampus won't get you."

Sonic knelt beside them, offering his usual reassuring grin. "Yeah! You're way too sweet for Krampus to even think about. You've got us, Cream. We'll protect you!"

Cream sniffled, looking up at them. "You will?"

"Of course!" Tails said with enthusiasm. "And if Krampus does show up, we'll outsmart him with our speed and brains. We'll figure it out together!"

Amy raised her hammer confidently. "And if he tries to take you, Cream, I'll make sure he gets a big whack! Nobody's taking you anywhere!"

Sonic stood tall, giving Cream a confident smile. "And you've got me, the fastest hedgehog in the world! If I can beat Eggman, I can sure beat Krampus!"

Cream's fears began to ease as she realized just how much her friends cared. Vanilla wrapped her arms around her, joined by Chao, who let out a cheerful cry. "Chao!"

Undertale universe

Frisk House

At Frisk's house, the mood was heavy as the implications of Krampus' abilities sunk in. "Did they really say he can open portals to hell?" Frisk asked, her wide eyes reflecting fear. "That's terrifying! What if he really sends someone there?"

Toriel wrapped her arms protectively around Frisk, her voice full of concern. "It's a deeply troubling thought. A creature with the power to throw someone into such darkness... We must stay vigilant. I won't let anything harm you, my child."

Sans, leaning against the wall with his usual smirk replaced by a serious expression, spoke up. "Portals to hell? That's some next-level creepy stuff. We should keep an eye out for anything unusual—cracks in the ground, flickering lights... anything."

Papyrus looked around at everyone, his eyes wide with alarm. "SOMEBODY COULD BE DRAGGED INTO THE FIERY PITS OF HELL! WE MUST PREPARE! WHAT IF HE COMES AFTER US?"

Undyne's fists clenched, her eyes burning with determination. "Not if we can help it! We're not letting him just stroll in and do whatever he wants. We need a plan—if he's coming for anyone, he's going to have to fight us first!"

Alphys, nervously adjusting her glasses, spoke up. "But what if he uses those portals to sneak up on us? We should think of a way to seal them or defend ourselves."

Asgore nodded gravely. "We must ensure everyone's safety. If Krampus can drag anyone into such a dark fate, we must be prepared for whatever comes."

Frisk, trying to remain hopeful, suggested, "What if we show him the true spirit of Christmas? Maybe, if he offers second chances, we can reach out to that part of him."

Sans gave a half-smile. "That'd be one way to mess with him, sure. But we've gotta be careful. If he's willing to throw people into hell, he might not be the type to listen."

Papyrus, ever optimistic, beamed. "THEN WE'LL SHOW HIM THE TRUE MEANING OF THE HOLIDAY! A FEAST OF FRIENDSHIP AND PASTA! WHO CAN RESIST SUCH A WONDERFUL OFFER?"

Undyne rolled her eyes but smiled. "Maybe a feast isn't the worst idea, Papyrus. But we definitely need some backup plans. If Krampus opens a portal, we need to be ready to fight or escape."

Alphys, fiddling with her gadget, spoke excitedly. "I'll work on a way to detect when a portal opens! Like a radar... for hell portals! I'll get started right away!"

Asgore nodded solemnly. "Very well, Alphys. But we must remember—we don't know if Krampus is real in our world. If he is, we must prepare for whatever comes when Christmas day arrives."

Toriel's voice softened, her concern evident. "I'll protect you, my child. I would sacrifice everything to keep you safe."

Frisk placed her hand gently on Toriel's. "I won't let you or anyone else sacrifice yourselves. I'll make sure everyone is safe, no matter what."

MLP Universe

Canterlot Castle

Twilight Sparkle's brow furrowed deeply, her mind racing with disbelief. "I can't believe what we just witnessed. Throwing somepony into the Underworld? That's... that's horrifying."

Spike, his claws nervously twisting together, glanced around with a growing sense of dread. "Yeah, and the whole portal thing? What if he shows up here in Equestria? I don't want to end up in a fiery pit!"

Fluttershy shuddered, her wings trembling slightly at the thought. "It's so unsettling. He sounds like such a mean spirit... What kind of creature would do something like that to anypony, especially children?"

Rainbow Dash, though trying to hold onto her usual boldness, couldn't entirely mask the unease in her voice. "We can handle it if he tries to come here! We've faced worse threats before! But still... throwing ponies into the Underworld? That's a new low."

Applejack crossed her arms, her face a mask of concern. "No doubt about it, sugarcube. We need to keep our guard up. If he can summon portals like that, we can't let our guard down, especially around Hearth's Warming."

Pinkie Pie bounced nervously on her hooves, her mind working overtime in an attempt to find a solution. "But what if we throw him a party instead? I mean, he does have that snow globe to watch over ponies, right? Maybe he just needs a friend!"

Rarity raised an eyebrow, her expression a mixture of disbelief and admiration for Pinkie's optimism. "A party for someone who sends ponies to hell? I admire your optimism, Pinkie, but I think we might need a different approach. Besides, we don't even know if he likes parties!"

Twilight Sparkle nodded thoughtfully, her mind already formulating a plan. "Rarity makes a good point. We need to be strategic. If Krampus is as powerful as they say, we can't take this lightly. We should gather information and see if there's a way to protect Equestria."

Spike looked up, worry clearly etched across his face. "Do you think there's a way to convince him to change? Maybe if he saw how much we care about each other and the spirit of Hearth's Warming?"

Fluttershy, though still anxious, allowed a small glimmer of hope to show in her eyes. "That might be possible. If we could show him the importance of kindness and friendship, maybe he wouldn't be so quick to send others away."

Rainbow Dash let out a heavy sigh, rubbing the back of her neck as she considered the situation. "I dunno, Fluttershy. If he can summon blizzards and open hell portals, it might take more than just a friendly gesture to convince him."

Applejack, her voice steady and firm, spoke up with a serious tone. "If we want to try talking to him, we better be prepared. We might need to defend ourselves if he doesn't listen. I don't like the idea of any of us getting hurt because we weren't ready."

Twilight Sparkle took a deep breath, feeling the weight of responsibility settle on her shoulders. "Then it's settled. We'll form a plan. We can gather supplies, set up defenses around Ponyville, and figure out how to approach Krampus. We can't let fear hold us back."

Each of them nodded in agreement, their determination solidifying in the face of an uncertain threat. Though none of them were aware that Krampus couldn't travel between worlds, they agreed that a cautious approach was necessary, just in case. They would prepare for the worst, hoping for the best.

...

Darfston: And what's a demonic child-kidnapping monster without his minions?

Kaelaz: Wait, I'm starting to get Slenderman vibes from this.

Jack: Krampus has a sack filled with demonic toys, some of which can mimic voices. Let's start with the Elves. These little guys can break through glass, smash through windows, and remain completely unharmed after being whacked in the face with a metal rod.

Vaerden: Krampus also has a monster known as the "Snow Beast" that swims through the snow. This thing is terrifying; it can toss grown men around like ragdolls and tank a lot of shotgun blasts!

Amarton: And let me introduce my favorite group of monsters: Clumpy, Lumpy, and Dumpy! This trio of gingerbread men can spin around a child with chains. Some of them have survived tiny explosions, been set on fire, and even lost limbs! Heck, one even reacted to a shotgun blast!

Yorina: Then there's Der Klown, a jack-in-the-box-like monster that can devour people. It dodged a gunshot, escaped while carrying two children, and spat a man dozens of meters away!

Jack: Perchta the Cherub is a tree-topper angel who hung someone with Christmas lights and flew away after being shot.

Darfston: Teddy Klaue is a monster teddy bear that came back after getting stabbed in the eyes. Not as impressive as Krampus' other servants, though.

Kaelaz: Tik Tok is a toy robot with scissors for one hand and sharp claws for the other. One of them was once possessed and shot out electricity, destroying itself and all the other toys around it.

Jack: Krampus' Nutcracker Soldiers can serve a man's finger with a single bite. And being Santa's counterpart, he has reindeer—sort of. The Yule Goats pull Krampus and act as his sleigh.

Vaerden: Uh, his only real weakness is that he only attacks on Christmas Eve. He probably has to stop if his victims survive until Christmas morning.

Amarton: So, yeah, keep believing in Christmas, guys! Or Krampus will come and take you to hell for your naughtiness.

[Out of the screen]

Many universes were taken aback by the appearance of Krampus' minions, as monsters and strange toys alike began to emerge. The sight of these creatures stirred fear, but what truly sent a shiver down their spines was the revelation of Krampus' weakness—that he only attacked at night. And if one could endure long enough, escape was possible, even from the terrifying fate of being dragged into Hell itself.

Despite the chilling nature of this revelation, many families, both children and adults, made a conscious effort to behave well, embracing the spirit of Christmas in order to avoid falling into Krampus' grasp. They feared the possibility of being sent to Hell if the creature ever crossed into their worlds. Witnessing the legendary fiend's existence firsthand, they were gripped by a newfound caution and dread. The lesson was clear: one misstep could be their last, with the looming threat of Hell awaiting anyone who slipped up.

...

Amazing Digital Circus universe

Pomni's eyes widened in disbelief. "Wait, did they just say Krampus has minions? That's not good! What kind of strange toys are we dealing with here?"

Ragatha raised an eyebrow, clearly disturbed by the thought. "Demonic toys? That sounds like a nightmare waiting to happen. I mean, glass-breaking elves? How do you even fight something like that?"

Jax, on the other hand, grinned widely, his enthusiasm bordering on reckless excitement. "Oh man, that's wild! I've dealt with crazier things, but this guy? He sounds like he really takes the cake! A monster teddy bear that keeps coming back? That's both terrifying and kinda hilarious!"

Kinger adjusted his hat nervously, his unease apparent. "I don't know, friends. This sounds like a real threat. Those Snow Beasts can toss people around like they're nothing! We need to be careful."

Gangle fidgeted, her mask betraying her anxiety. "What if they come here? I really don't want to get caught up in a toy invasion! I can barely handle our usual antics!"

Zooble shook her head, her tone dismissive as she reassured the others. "Seriously? We're inside the digital world. They won't come here, so stop being scared."

She then paused, a new concern crossing her mind. "Although, what's with the tree-topper angel that hangs people? That's just wrong on so many levels! This Krampus seems like he's out for blood, not just mischief."

Jax, always ready to inject his excitement into any situation, leaned in with a teasing grin. "Don't forget, he only attacks on Christmas Eve. That sounds like a real bummer, don't you think? Hey, Pomni, if Krampus exists in this digital world, I'm sure you'd get along with him."

Pomni's face paled at the thought of Krampus, her anxiety mounting.

Ragatha quickly snapped, her voice sharp. "Jax!"

Jax shrugged nonchalantly. "What? We're not sure if Caine made Krampus exist or not."

At that moment, Caine materialized out of nowhere, floating beside Jax with his usual enigmatic presence. "Sorry, Jax, but this digital circus and the adventure don't have Krampus in it. He doesn't exist in the program."

Pomni, hearing Caine's words, felt a momentary sense of calm, though the unsettling thought of Krampus dragging souls into Hell still lingered in her mind. She shivered at the thought.

Kinger, ever the optimist, pondered aloud. "Hm, maybe if he likes my collection of insects?"

Frieren: Beyond Journey's End universe

Frieren stood with a contemplative expression, her thoughts racing. "So, this Krampus creature isn't just a solitary threat. He has minions at his disposal. That's... rather concerning."

Fern frowned deeply, her arms crossed in worry. "Minions that look like demons we've never seen before? How does that even work?"

Stark, ever eager for a fight, clenched his fists. "Not to mention that Snow Beast. Tossing grown men around like ragdolls? That's terrifying! But it'll be worth fighting if I get the chance!"

Frieren, calm as ever, considered the details carefully. "They mentioned Krampus only attacks on Christmas Eve. But what does that even mean?"

Fern shook her head, uncertainty clouding her thoughts. "I don't know, but it seems like if we can survive until then, we might be safe. But what about his minions? They don't seem to have the same limitation."

Stark scratched his chin thoughtfully. "True, but if Krampus has to wait until then, maybe we can plan accordingly. We should be able to outmaneuver the minions until then. If we can stay hidden or distracted... Maybe we can avoid them."

Fern, her resolve hardening, spoke up with determination. "I'll keep an eye out for anything suspicious. If they can mimic voices, we can't let our guard down, no matter what we hear."

Frieren's voice remained steady as she reassured them. "Fern, Krampus doesn't exist in our world. Only in another. However, should he manage to cross into our world, we must be prepared."

Stark nodded, a confident grin spreading across his face. "Good point. We'll make sure that monster won't stand a chance."

He flexed his fists in readiness, itching for a fight.

Fern, however, was more cautious, her voice tinged with doubt. "If we are able to beat him, that is."

SCP-4666/THE YULE MAN

Kaelaz: Imagine this: it's late on a winter night. You're relaxing, sipping a cup of warm hot cocoa, when you hear footsteps on your roof. Of course, you're freaked out and brush it off as a hallucination. You decide it's time for bed and lay down. You drift to sleep, but suddenly, you hear your door creak open. Your heart races as a tall, naked man enters your room and begins to strangle you. You struggle, but you feel your consciousness draining, unaware of the horrors awaiting you.

Darfston: What Toby just described is a Weissnacht Event, the most common act carried out by The Yule Man during his twelve days of stalking a family in the winter months, specifically from December 21 to January 1-2. During the Weissnacht Event, he restrains his victims and their families, leads them into one room, and murders all of them, except for one child whom he kidnaps. The SCP Foundation tries to find this monster, but they are unsuccessful in capturing it as he is able to evade his location. There's a less common event known as "SCP-4666-1," where he just enters a family's house and leaves toys made from the skin of dead children.

...

[Out of the screen]

As the universes collectively witnessed the introduction of the next fighter, many were struck by a deep sense of horror, some even recoiling in fear. The appearance of SCP-4666 alone was enough to send a shiver down their spines, particularly due to its association with the terror it brought to children.

But as the analysis continued, revealing that the monster crafted toys from the corpses of dead children, an overwhelming wave of disgust, fear, and fury spread across the universes. The anger was palpable—this was a creature that inflicted suffering on the most innocent and helpless, a monstrous act that enraged everyone who learned of it.

...

Overwatch universe

The veteran members of Overwatch, along with the newest recruits, stood frozen, their expressions a mixture of shock, horror, and an undeniable rage as they learned about SCP-4666.

Mercy's voice cracked with emotion. "Oh my god... Those children..." Tears welled up in her eyes as she quickly turned to Genji for comfort, her hand over her mouth in an attempt to hold back sobs. Genji, standing strong, placed a reassuring hand on her head, but his eyes betrayed a deep fury.

Cassidy's words were laced with disgust as he shook his head. "This... this is sick. That thing did something to those children that not even Null Sector or Talon would dare do."

Reinhardt's fists clenched with all the power of his anger. "I will avenge them!" he bellowed, his voice thunderous. "I will avenge those poor children, and that Christmas monster will pay!" His rage was so intense that he longed for a way to be taken to another universe, to confront the creature directly.

Brigitte grabbed his arm, her voice soft but firm. "Reinhardt, please... We can't do anything to save them from another universe. We must calm down."

Reinhardt's fury simmered down, but his teeth ground together. His goddaughter's words were true—there was nothing they could do.

Tracer's voice was sharp, full of determination. "Whoever's behind the SCP Foundation better find that creature soon. Or more innocent children will die."

Zarya's muscles tensed, her fists pounding together with a deadly promise. "If that thing ever shows up in our world, I will make sure it suffers for every pain it caused."

...

Ultimate Super Smash Bros Universe

The Smash fighters were equally shocked, horrified, and filled with disgust upon hearing the grim details of SCP-4666.

Bayonetta's voice was filled with righteous fury. "I knew it! I'm going to kill that son of a bitch for what he did to those children!" Her anger burned hot, her fists clenched in an unstoppable rage.

Pit was speechless, his body trembling uncontrollably. "Those toys... they're made of dead children!" His voice cracked as he tried to process the horrific truth.

Peach, overcome with grief, could barely speak through her sobs. "How... how could anyone do such a thing to those poor children?" Her tears fell freely, and Daisy and Mario rushed to her side, offering their comfort.

Luigi's face paled with shock. "That... that monster! No villain would ever do something so vile! But this... this thing..." His voice faltered as he struggled to comprehend the depths of such cruelty.

Mii Gunner's expression was a stone mask of fury. "That monster deserves to die. No mercy."

Isabelle, shaking her head in disbelief, muttered, "This is worse than Krampus... This is pure evil."

The younger fighters, especially the childlike ones, could hardly contain their disgust and horror. Their hearts ached for the victims of SCP-4666, and the adults, too, were deeply disturbed by the sheer brutality of the creature's actions. They stood together, trying to maintain their courage, but none could bear the thought of what SCP-4666 would do to them if it ever crossed their path.

Sora's face crumpled with sorrow. "No... this can't be real..." He dropped to his knees, overwhelmed by the suffering of those children, their pain far too cruel to comprehend. His fists clenched tight, his entire body trembling with the weight of his disgust. The thought that something as wicked as SCP-4666 could exist filled him with both sorrow and fury. It was one of the cruelest beings he had ever known.

...

The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky Universe

A stunned silence gripped everyone present, including the bracers from guilds spread across the lands. They were utterly shocked by SCP-4666's grotesque treatment of children, an act so vile that it left a permanent mark on their minds. Families instinctively shielded their children's eyes, desperate to protect them from the unspeakable horror on the screen. Military personnel and bracers alike stood firm, their faces hardening with a mixture of fury and disgust. It was beyond comprehension that such a creature could exist, one that turned innocent children into grotesque toys made of flesh. Even Krampus, a figure known for his dark nature, would never go so far; he would at least offer a second chance, a flicker of hope for redemption. As the small screens flickered, showing the details of Christmas Eve traditions—a concept that intrigued some of them—they couldn't help but think that this was an event that might someday find a place in their world. However, there was no mistaking the consensus: SCP-4666 was a dangerous, vile monster that had to be eradicated before it could harm any more children.

...

[Mercia Orphanage]

Inside the orphanage, the children huddled together, their tears flowing freely as they trembled in fear. The cruelty of SCP-4666 was beyond anything they had ever imagined, and the very thought of such a monster terrified them to their core. Even Clem, usually so full of bravado, felt a chill deep within himself, realizing that this was no foe to be taken lightly. He stood frozen, unable to shake the feeling that SCP-4666 was a force too dangerous to challenge.

Theresa, the matron of the orphanage, held the children close, wrapping them in her protective arms, trying to offer comfort amidst the fear. "Shh, shh... Don't cry, my dears," she murmured softly, her voice a soothing balm. "Aidios will protect us. That monster doesn't belong in our world. We are safe here."

But despite her calm words, a deep sadness weighed heavily on her heart. She couldn't help but feel the pain for the children who had fallen victim to SCP-4666, their fates sealed by such unimaginable cruelty. As she closed her eyes in silent prayer, she asked Aidios to watch over those lost souls, praying that someday, someone would rise up to avenge them and destroy the vile creature responsible for their suffering.

...

The room fell into an eerie silence, everyone frozen in shock and horror at the twisted methods SCP-4666 employed on innocent children during Christmas Eve.

Undyne, her voice cracking with outrage, couldn't contain herself. "What the hell is that thing?!" she shouted, fury boiling within her.

Alphys, her wide eyes filled with disbelief, stammered, "I-I can't... I can't believe what I'm seeing..."

Toriel, overwhelmed by the horror of it all, whispered in a trembling voice, "Oh God... That awful monster... what it did to those children..." Her words trailed off as she suddenly crumpled to the ground, fainting from the sheer shock of the sight.

"Mom!" Frisk cried out, rushing to her side.

"Tori!" Asgore shouted, his voice breaking as he hurried to kneel beside her, both of them desperately trying to rouse Toriel from her faint.

Meanwhile, Sans stood in the corner, his grin gone, his empty eye sockets glowing with an ominous darkness. His gaze was fixed on the screen, where SCP-4666—or "The Yule Man" as it was sometimes called—lurked. Behind his usual carefree demeanor, a raw, seething rage simmered. The monster before them, a creature from beyond the Underground, was far more terrifying than even Krampus. At least Krampus offered a chance at redemption, a flicker of hope for those who had lost their Christmas spirit. But SCP-4666 didn't offer mercy—it reveled in torment, in eating, in killing, and worst of all, in turning children into twisted, grotesque toys made of flesh.

Sans clenched his fist, the weight of his anger unmistakable. "Oh... He is going to have a bad time," he muttered coldly, his words laced with a promise of vengeance.

Jack: SCP-4666, like Krampus, doesn't have any backstory, so let's get to his feats. He once drained an entire family of their blood and hung them upside down. He can pin people to walls with pitchforks and knives before removing their tongues.

Vaerden: The Yule Man can rip off limbs and easily skin people. He's capable of beheading people with bucksaws. The Yule Man uses whatever he finds to murder, and his long list of weapons includes pitchforks, knives, bones, saws, and his fists.

Yorina: SCP-4666 can easily climb onto roofs and incapacitate, restrain, and kill grown men in various ways, often using his surroundings to his advantage.

Cole's voice thundered in the room, filled with rage and disbelief as he watched the horrific actions of SCP-4666 unfold. "That motherfucking child slaughter!" he shouted, his anger boiling over.

Marcus, his jaw clenched with fury, added, "That monster deserves to die. If he ever comes here, I'll chop him into pieces myself."

Anya, standing beside him, nodded solemnly, her own disgust evident. "Believe me, I'd agree with you more than you know," she replied, her voice thick with emotion.

Damon's face twisted in disgust as he processed the monster's actions. "Damn, that thing's doing it to kids... I'm gonna kill that thing, no question about it."

Samantha Byrne, her fists clenched in determination, spoke up, her tone resolute. "You're not the only one," she said, her voice heavy with shared anger.

Mimir, ever the wise and cynical voice, couldn't hide his horror. "That thing... it's worse than Odin. No, much, much worse, I can tell ya," he said, his tone grim and full of distaste.

Freya, who had seen countless horrors in her time, spoke with venom. "It's a monster more cruel than anything we've ever encountered. It deserves to die slowly, painfully."

Kratos stood silently, his arms crossed over his chest, his face a mask of stoic rage. He didn't speak, but the intensity of his glare was enough to show how deeply disturbed he was. His thoughts were a swirl of anger and grief, remembering the children affected by this creature on a night that had meant so much in other worlds—Christmas Eve. The thought of his own son flashed through his mind, but he quickly pushed it aside. His destiny awaited, and if this monster ever crossed into his world, Kratos—or anyone else—would show it the true meaning of pain.

Real Mythical universe

Santa Workshop

The elves were horrified, utterly shaken by the revelation of SCP-4666's atrocities. Their wide eyes filled with fear, they whispered amongst themselves, unable to comprehend the cruelty the monster had inflicted on children. Even those on the naughty list, once thought to be deserving of lesser consequences, had faced unimaginable pain at the hands of this fiend. A few of the elves, unable to stomach what they were hearing, gagged and puked, their cookies from Mrs. Claus no longer a comfort but a burden.

Mrs. Claus, her heart shattered by the news, cried uncontrollably, her sobs muffled as she buried her face in her husband's chest. Santa Claus held her tenderly, his hand brushing through her hair as he tried to soothe her, but his gaze never left the screen. His eyes were filled with a mixture of anger and disappointment, a deep sorrow at the thought of a creature so vile existing in the world.

"That monster," Santa said, his voice low and filled with a sorrowful conviction, "he's truly a nightmare of Christmas. Far worse than Krampus ever could be."

Darfston: The Yule Man's greatest feat has to be making a bunch of children his unwilling slaves in his underground lair. They're forced to make toys from human skin until they die, at which point they become the toys! This shows SCP-4666 can overpower a large group of small children, and one of his victims mentions he can bite off people's fingers and rip through the flesh of children. To be fair, the devouring part happens only after he cooks them, but still!

Amarton: Due to being a mysterious creature, The Yule Man has no weaknesses, at least from what we can tell. Oh, one last thing! We don't know what SCP-4666 looks like, but he's usually depicted by fans as a white-haired man with giant black eyes and a wide smile with huge teeth, so let's just go with that.

Kaelaz: So, if you live with young children and you see a tall man near a forest, it's probably Slenderman or SCP-4666. Either way, you're probably going to die very soon!

Bakugo's voice cut through the room like a bolt of lightning, full of anger and determination. "If I ever see that Christmas monster, I'm gonna kill him. Hell, I say we all kill that bastard!" he snarled, his fists clenched at his sides.

The room fell silent. No one spoke, their faces etched with deep shock and horror as they processed the unsettling details of SCP-4666's actions. Among them, Eri stood frozen, trembling in fear at the thought of such a creature. She instinctively moved toward Deku, seeking comfort. Without a word, he gently placed a hand on her head, offering a silent reassurance.

Ochaco, kneeling down beside Eri, spoke softly, her voice full of warmth. "Eri, don't cry. We promise we won't let him hurt you."

Eri sniffled, her eyes still filled with uncertainty. "You do?" she asked, her voice small and fragile.

"Of course!" Ochaco replied with a reassuring smile. "We're heroes. We always protect those who need it, and that includes you."

Eri's face brightened slightly, her spirits lifted by Ochaco's kind words. Deku smiled at the sight, his heart lightened by the fact that his friend could bring Eri some comfort. Yet, as he glanced back at the screen, his thoughts drifted into darker places. He couldn't shake the question of what would happen if such a monster ever appeared in their world.

Deku's mind raced, torn between the weight of his ideals and the harsh reality of the situation. Should it be locked away in prison... or put down? he thought, conflicted. We heroes don't kill, but... it's hard to stand by when something like this exists. What's the right choice?

After the conclusion of analysis of both fighters, most of everyone in different universes don't support Krampus, SCP-4666, or both, as they are more terrifying monsters that come to bring terror on Christmas Eve. Although, there is some support for Krampus because he did give them a second chance to learn their lesson while SCP-4666 does not give them a second chance.

MHA UNiverse

Conference Room, UA High School

Nezu's voice broke the silence as he entered the room, his tone calm and composed. "I believe we should support Krampus."

Endeavor spun around, his eyes wide in disbelief. "What!" he exclaimed, his voice heavy with skepticism.

"And why, exactly, should we support that monster?" he asked, clearly perplexed by Nezu's suggestion.

Nezu adjusted his glasses, his expression serious. "While SCP-4666— or as it's called— displays cruelty in an inhumane manner, Krampus is a figure from legendary folklore. He does his job of punishing naughty children, a tradition I read about in my spare time before the Death Battle appeared in our world."

Vlad King raised an eyebrow. "Are you certain about this?"

Nezu nodded confidently. "Absolutely. In folklore, Santa and Krampus work together. Santa brings joy, while Krampus teaches a lesson to misbehaving children. He gives coal to the naughty ones, and, while his methods may seem harsh, such as beating them with branches or taking them to the underworld, his actions are part of his role. Despite his brutality, Krampus's actions are somewhat justified."

Snipe shook his head in hesitation. "I'm not so sure. Supporting him goes against everything we heroes stand for."

Before anyone could respond, Midnight piped up with an unexpected agreement. "Actually, I'm on Krampus's side," she said with a smirk.

Endeavor's eyes widened in surprise. "Wait, what?"

Midnight chuckled darkly. "After all, he punishes those naughty kids. Something I'd be happy to do if they misbehave on Christmas. Hehehe~"

Her mischievous laugh sent a shiver through the room.

Ectoplasm stared at her, unimpressed. "Midnight..."

"What?" Midnight responded casually. "I'm not doing anything bad. Just a little punishment for the naughty ones on Christmas Eve, that's all."

All Might, ever the voice of reason, interrupted. "Regardless, I don't think we should be too concerned. They've said it's just a simulation, not a real battle. There's nothing to worry about."

Eraserhead remained skeptical, his arms folded. "Still..."

Nezu addressed the room once more. "Besides, by supporting Krampus, we'll be able to study his capabilities, strengths, and weaknesses. It'll give us an advantage if he or someone like him ever shows up in our world. Does that ease your doubts?"

The room fell into thoughtful silence. One by one, the heroes exchanged glances before reluctantly nodding in agreement. Though they weren't entirely comfortable with the idea, they understood the strategic importance of watching the battle unfold.

SCP Universe

05-Council Room, SCP Foundation

One of the councilors spoke up, his tone grave. "It seems that SCP-4666 has decided to participate in this Death Battle."

Another councilor, his expression thoughtful, inquired, "Do we know what to call it by SCP number?"

"Not exactly," replied Councilor 1. "But this might be an opportunity to study it more closely and learn more about SCP-4666."

Councilor 10 nodded in agreement. "I see. This could be considered a combat test to understand its capabilities. The scientists would seize this opportunity to gather data without hesitation."

Councilor 4, always pragmatic, shrugged. "Let them. At least we'll learn more about it."

Councilor 9, ever the cautious one, raised a concern. "But what about the public? They've already seen it, and now they'll know more about classified SCPs. The secret will be out soon enough."

Councilor 1's expression grew stern. "Whether we like it or not, it's too late to use amnestics. And don't forget the treaty we signed with him."

The room fell silent as the members understood the weight of his words. He was referring to the figure who had entered their universe, forming an alliance to combat the most dangerous SCPs. This alliance had provided valuable assistance, technology, and upgrades to military and weaponry—shifting the balance of power.

Councilor 6 spoke quietly. "You mean the Supreme Sovereign of the Salvatian Republic."

Councilor 1 nodded. "Yes. Ever since he made contact with our Administrator, we've had no choice but to accept the situation. Thanks to him, the Serpent Hand has become a centralized organization with a positive relationship with both him and us. Even the Church of the Broken God, who once sought vengeance, now allies with us in return for his assistance."

Councilor 12 raised a lingering question. "But can we trust their methods?"

The members exchanged uneasy glances, and then Councilor 1 spoke firmly. "If they break the treaty, we must be prepared to strike back. But for now, we watch this battle closely."

A murmur of agreement spread through the room, and all eyes turned toward the screen, awaiting the beginning of the Death Battle.

https://youtu.be/41KuW4KcyGE

Christmas Eve is such an amazing time, a time to spend with your family, a time to be happy, a time to get excited about the presents you are gonna get the next morning. None of these things were on the mind of Max Engel who just witnessed three of his family members, Dorothy, Chrissie and Howard, get kidnapped by Krampus's Elves. Krampus, who decided it was time to scare the family out of their house, began to climb down the chimney, denting it as Max and his family looked towards Krampus and the broken chimney in horror.

There was another monster waiting for them. We cut to some snowy footprints; the footprints quickly being covered by the snow as we are shown making these footsteps. SCP-4666, also known as The Yule Man. The Yule Man's grin was as wide as ever, but it began to fade as he looked upon the damaged house. SCP-4666 ran towards the house and busted the door down as Max's family turned to the broken door and The Yule Man. Max and his family quickly escaped through the broken window, Krampus didn't mind, he would send some Elves to catch them later. The two child-kidnappers stared at each-other, SCP-4666's grin returning with Krampus's expression not changing as both of them got ready to engage in a brawl that would leave at least someone happy that one of these monsters would be gone forever.

The tension across every universe grew palpable as the two fighters prepared to face each other. All eyes were fixed on them, anticipation thick in the air, as they readied themselves for a battle to the death, embodying the dark creatures of Christmas Eve.

FIGHT!

The Yule Man picked up a nearby shard of broken glass and tried to stab Krampus with it, but he grabbed SCP-4666's wrist and slammed him into a wall before throwing him into the fireplace. SCP-4666 screeched and ran out, but Krampus was gone! The Yule Man looked around as he was ambushed by a group of gingerbread men. SCP-4666 grabbed one of them and crushed the gingerbread man with his hand and attempted to step on another one but they quickly dodged and began to laugh. The remaining gingerbread men then take a nearby candy cane and try to stab The Yule Man in the eye, but he grabs him and tosses them into the flames of the fireplace.

SCP-4666 dusts himself off, not noticing a group of Elves, Nutcrackers and a toy robot behind him. Tik Tok lunged onto the SCP's back as The Yule Man grabbed him and threw him onto the floor. Before he could stomp Tik Tok to death, the nutcrackers lunged onto his hands and began to bite them. Tik Tok got back up and using his claws, sliced at The Yule Man's heel causing the SCP to fall down and crush Tik Tok who stopped moving. SCP-4666 ran into the house's kitchen, trying to find a weapon when he spotted something, a shotgun.

The SCP ran back into the room and began to fire the gun, destroying the nutcrackers and some of the Elves, after this, the ammo ran out in the gun and he ran back to the kitchen, with some of the Elves pursuing him. Meanwhile, Krampus was watching this chaos unravel, deciding to help his servants, he sent Der Klown, and Teddy Klaue to assist the other demonic toys.

We then cut back to the house where we see The Yule Man has killed the Elves in ways you can tell by looking at them, throwing them into the flames, stabbing, neck snapping, you name it! The SCP was about to leave to find and kill Krampus when Perchta the Cherub flew through the broken window and lunged towards The Yule Man, trying to bite his leg as he kept the tree angel at arms length but suddenly, Der Klown and Teddy Klaue grabbed his legs and brought him down! They began to restrain him as Perchta the Cherub flew towards some Christmas lights, as she began to wrap the lights around the SCP's neck and began to fly up, slowly hanging him.

As the battle raged on between the two dark Christmas entities, many families anxiously watched, their concern for their children growing despite the fact that it was merely a highly realistic simulation. Then, shock rippled through the crowd when Krampus summoned his helpers to assist in taking down SCP-4666. Now, the monstrous entity found itself facing an army of deadly toys. The sight of these toys sent chills down the spines of children everywhere, who could scarcely imagine the terror of being targeted by such killers, especially when marked on the naughty list.

[Back to screen]

...

The Yule Man tried to reach for his knife in a desperate attempt to save himself, he raised the knife upward and... stabbed Perchta the Cherub with all of his strength, causing the angel to stop flying and fall to the floor, lifeless! SCP-4666 cut the lights off his throat and began to stab Teddy Klaue in his eye, over and over again, leaving Der Klown as the last of Krampus's toys that were alive. The SCP and the clown began to struggle with each-other, with the clown finally getting the upper hand and began to devour the SCP before spitting him out the window.

The Yule Man landed face first in the snow, he got up and began to dust himself off but as he looked around, he noticed something swimming through the snow. The SCP stared in wonder before the Snow Beast pulled The Yule Man through the snow. The SCP was dragged around for a few minutes until the Snow Beast stopped. SCP-4666 got back up and saw that he was face-to-face with Krampus, who just threw Max into a portal to hell.

...

[Out of the screen]

Many watched in disbelief as SCP-4666 struggled against Krampus' killer toys. Despite their small and seemingly weak size, the toys overpowered the monstrous entity with sheer numbers, forcing it to fend off attacks from multiple directions at once, leaving it unable to properly defend itself from the relentless onslaught.

In the SCP Universe, scientists meticulously observed the fight, taking detailed notes on SCP-4666's performance. They analyzed the results, hoping to find a way to defeat it and eventually contain the anomaly, preventing it from escaping into the outside world and causing harm to innocent children.

Then, to everyone's surprise, Krampus himself entered the fray, either to assist his minions or to swiftly end the battle. For many watching from other universes, the outcome of this clash was already clear.

[Back to screen]

...

The Yule Man lunged forward, trying to rip out Krampus's throat but he quickly scratched at the SCP's eyes with his claws before he wrapped the SCP with some chains. After this, Krampus grabbed the Yule Man by its throat and began to crush it. Krampus stopped for a little and let the SCP onto his knees as Krampus turned his back on him. Suddenly, Krampus turned and in one quick gesture, ripped out SCP-4666's throat, with enough force that the SCP was decapitated! It wasn't a long fight, hell, Krampus didn't have to get his hands dirty for most of the fight. Krampus's minions, who he had revived, pushed The Yule Man into the portal to the Underworld, ensuring there would be no more Weissnacht Events.

KO!

Krampus is seen watching Max and his family in a snow globe.

SCP-4666's body is seen burning in the Underworld.

[Out of the screen]

As the battle neared its conclusion, many watched in stunned silence, their eyes wide with disbelief as Krampus emerged victorious. With a swift motion, he crushed SCP-4666's neck before decapitating the monster entirely. To their further astonishment, one of Krampus' minions revived, helping him by shoving SCP-4666 into a pit of hell.

Ban leaned back in his chair with a grin. "Well, well, seems like the demons finally got the upper hand on that thing. Quite a rough battle."

Meliodas nodded, his eyes still reflecting the intensity of the fight. "Yeah. Watching this really got me pumped. It was so intense, it kinda reminded me of fighting Zeldris when he was still with the Ten Commandments."

Ban raised an eyebrow. "I wonder if any of us could've beaten that thing instead of Krampus."

Meliodas chuckled. "One of us probably would've. No doubt about it."

Hawk, ever the optimist, chimed in from beside them. "Yep! We would've definitely won by now if we were in a death battle with that monster."

Ban smirked. "Heh, well, either way, we all know it wouldn't stand a chance against us with our magic."

Anne shook her head in disbelief, her voice filled with wonder. "Never thought I'd live to see the day when Krampus, a legendary Christmas folklore creature, beats that child-killing monster."

Marcy sighed, her face reflecting a somber mood. "Yeah. But it still bothers me. Seeing those kids turned into toys in such a twisted way—it's just... it haunts me. I can't sleep without nightmares after this."

Sasha clenched her fists, her voice low but filled with anger. "If any of us had been part of that death battle, I swear, I would've pummeled that ugly smile right off its face and shoved my sword straight through—"

Anne quickly cut her off, raising a hand. "Whoa, hold on there, girl. No need to get too violent. I get it, alright? But at least we got to see the satisfaction of that SCP-4666's demise... wait, was that even its name?"

Sasha scoffed, brushing off the interruption. "Regardless, it was great seeing it defeated by Krampus. That monster didn't even stand a chance. Krampus really showed him who's the boss."

...

Kaelaz: To be honest, I expected this.

Darfston: Other than experience, Krampus took all of the categories pretty easily.

Jack: Let's start with strength. Krampus can easily destroy chimneys, which are usually made of bricks, and he can demolish roofs and trucks, while SCP-4666 can tear humans apart. Not really a contest.

Amarton: Speed wasn't a close race either. Krampus can disappear from human sight in the blink of an eye, while The Yule Man hasn't shown any notable speed feats.

Vaerden: Krampus should be superior to his minions, who can survive shotgun blasts, while SCP-4666 has no durability feats, unless you scale him to ripping people into pieces. Even then, Krampus's durability is better, considering we can scale him to destroy the roof of a mall!

Hearing the words of the hosts, they were surprised that they expected the result, even so, seeing the power and strength Krampus possessed to defeat SCP-4666. They understood why Krampus had won in a death battle against his opponent.

[Back to screen]

...

Yorina: Krampus's magical abilities and minions would greatly help against the Yule Man, who only relies on brute force and weapons.

Jack: The Yule Man wasn't completely outclassed. His weapons could provide some assistance, but not for long. He has experience, as the Yule Man has been active since at least the 1400s, while we have no idea how long Krampus has been around. He also has more stamina than Krampus, since he can stalk people over the course of twelve days, while Krampus only attacks on Christmas Eve.

Darfston: But experience, stamina, and better weapons won't save you from an opponent who is much stronger, faster, and more durable, with greater magical abilities and servants. This might seem cold-blooded, but the SCP could not even leave a cramp in these monsters. Hell, Krampus's minions could have won this fight themselves.

Kaelaz: The winner is Krampus. Merry Christmas, everyone!

...

[Out of the screen]

The room fell into a heavy silence after the show ended. Some felt a sense of relief that those two dark creatures would never cross into their world. Others wondered, though, what it would be like if Krampus were truly real in their universes, lurking in the shadows, his existence kept secret from all but a few.

SCP Universe

Somewhere in dark winter forest

In the cold, desolate woods near a small village, the defeated anomaly, SCP-4666, brooded in the darkness. His fists clenched tightly as he watched the screen in front of him. Anger surged through him—he had lost to Krampus, a legendary Christmas folklore demon. Instead of a grin, his face twisted into a snarl, a stark contrast to the smile he might have shown in victory. That damn folklore demon had humiliated him, exposing just how weak he truly was. He could almost hear the laughter of those watching, mocking him. An enraged roar tore from his throat, echoing into the cold sky before he stormed off into the forest, vanishing from sight. This year, collecting children on Christmas Eve seemed like a task he was not in the mood for. But he would return, he swore—when his temper cooled.

Krampus (2015) universe

Krampus lair

Krampus leaned back in his chair, the soft creak of the wood accompanying the slow rock of his body. His eyes were fixed on a piece of paper, the faint glow from the screen illuminating his face as he wrote. The name "SCP-4666" was scrawled on the page, a mark of a target. Krampus would find this monster and send it to hell, as he had done with so many others before. No one escaped his grasp—not even this child-slaying creature. His gaze hardened, the weight of his purpose clear. No one would dare take that job away from him.
